Vol. 3, No. 25 Beauty BLOOMINGDALE QUIR PROPERTY OWNER TO STAY: CITIZEN Bloomingdale apparently has quited down after its little spasm of excitement. This section recently came into prominence when a group of its white citizens made a bold, but futile, attempt to intimidate colored residents living there. The three places visited by the mob that characterized itsself as a group of white christians, were William L. Clark, 143 U Street, Professor W. W. Woodard, 127 W Street, and Lawrence Prince, on Flagler Place. Not any of these places have been molested in the least since the mob of last week. It was learned this week that not any of the Negro property owners in this section intend to sell or move out. A meeting of the prominent citizens of the District was held last Saturday night at the home of Prof. Kelly Miller on Fourth Street at which time the insult of Bloomingdale was discussed as well as the trouble experienced by Negroes in other sections, namely, Gerard Street and S Street. It was decided at this meeting to have a conference with the ministers of the city at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church on Wednesday night, November 14th. At this meeting which was largely attended, it was decided to vigorously fight any attempt to force resident segregation under any guise in any section of the District of Columbia. A committee was appointed to urge the entire clergy of Washington to do all they can to educate their congregations to know their rights under the law in the matter of buying homes and protecting them. That the Negroes are solidly united in the matter of protecting the rights of the race, was attested by the many letters offering assistance in any form (Continued on page 3) The Onl Football given by the The Washington Tribune WOMEN ABOUT TO REALIZE NEW ACHIEVEMENT Something new under the sun is the only way to characterize the program of The Wage Earners National Association. This association has for its purpose the building up of an organization of all wage earners. Their program, among other things, calls for the building of a manufacturing plant for the making of servants' supplies. Under the guiding hand of Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, who is president of the organization, the association met last Wednesday morning to begin work on the final plans looking forward to the consummation of its program. Miss Burroughs held a conference Wednesday morning with a group of very influential white women of this city who assured her that they would cooperate with the Wage Earners Association. These white women pledged themselves to match dollar for dollar all the money raised by the colored women. The Wage Earners Association is now negotiating for a building in which it expects to begin operations very soon. A series of big meetings will be held at an early date at which time the public will be thoroughly acquainted with this organization. Purcell Fund Continues to Grow The fund for the relief of the family of officer John W. Purcell, who was slain in a gun battle in Southwest about three weeks ago, has passed the $1200 mark. Contributions are still coming in. Those who desire to contribute to this line of duty fund, can do so by sending their donations to the clerk of the Metropolitan Police Department. The Tribune acknowledges receipt of a $2 donation from A.A.T. This and all other donations have been forwarded to the proper agency. ANNUAL DINNER OF HOWARD WOMEN Over three hundred Undergraduates, Alumnae and Women faculty members gathered in the Dining Hall of Howard University on Friday night November 9, for the second annual co-e dinner given under the auspices of the Women's League of the University.

Songs and yells interposed the program of the evening. The co-ed dinner is one of the most enjoyable social affairs of the college year, and is looked forward to with great enthusiasm by all Howard women.

READY TO ENTERTAIN BIG CROWD Philadelphia, Pa.—Philadelphia is all astir in preparation for the annual Foot Ball Classic between Howard and Lincoln. It seems to be about the only topic of conversation, and every body is making preparations to entertain the visitors during their stay, in royal fashion. It is reported that all of the box seats have already been sold, and there is a mad rush for reserve and general admission tickets. It is conceded that the crowd at this game will surpass that of any previous year, and the management is making preparations to erect emergency seats in case there are more than 20,000 people who are expected. Graduate Manager Alexander says he feels sure that the weather will be perfect for he has covered the game with a $5,000 rain insurance policy. The Philadelphia alumni of Howard and Lincoln have united their forces in an effort to make all the affairs surrounding Thanksgiving have a distinct college atmosphere and flavor. On Thanksgiving eve there will be the annual contest of the Robert C. Ogden Association of the John Wannamaker Store. The bands participating in this contest will be the R. O. Ogden, the Imperial Lodge of Elks, (New York) Band and the Howard University R. O. T. C. Band. These are considered three of the best bands in the country. This affair will be held at the Third Regiment Artillery, Broad and Wharton Streets, and will serve as a convenient place for the before-the-game meeting of the many visitors who will gather in Philadelphia. On Thursday night there will be a Re-union Reception and Rally at the same place. This will partake of the nature of a reception to the teams, the winning band, the Alumni and the student bodies of both institutions. The three bands which will engage in the contest on the previous night will furnish music for this occasion. There will also be a good natured contest on the field during the game between the Howard band, which will help the Howard rabble and the R. C. Ogden Band which will play for the Lincoln rabble. Practically every person of note in the East has already made reservations for the game, and a large number of tickets have been sold to persons in Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City and as far South as Atlanta, Ga. Special trains will be run from New York under the direction of the Hotel Tattler; from Pittsburgh under the direction of the Pittsburgh Courier; from Atlantic City under the direction of R. T. Lockett and from Washington, D. C. under the direction of J. H. Maxwell.

BLOOMINGDALE QUIET (Continued from page 1) to the people who were molested by the mob last week. One colored real estate firm reported this week that a Bloomingdale proper owner had eight houses he was desiring to sell to colored people. A big white real estate firm on New York Avenue, also reported that they had property for sale to colored people in this section. So instead of the Bloomingdale trouble preventing the sale of more property it has accelerated it. It was further learned this week by a Tribune representative that the white Episcopal church located at Second and U Streets, will within a few months he turned over to a colored congregation by the Bishop of Washington. With this change in view, and the fact that more property is offered for sale than before, no further trouble is expected in this section. So far the U. S. District Attorney's office has not let it become known just what will be done in the matter of bringing the leaders of the mob before the courts here. There is a wide spread demand among all groups that the leaders of this mob be made to pay the penalty for their acts.

Normal and Industrial Institute eleven of Petersburg, Virginia closed Howard's home football season at the American League park Saturday and while defeated, 19 to 7, the visitors presented the best offensive game seen here this year and incidentally succeeded where all others have failed—and crossed the Blue and White goal line. The distinction of being the only player to cross the Howard goal goes to Epps, the flashy Va. Normal back. The score came in the second period when Peyton on a fake play around right end made a back pass over Dodson's head and Ross recovered for the visitors. In the meanwhile Epps caught the Howard defense napping, slipped out near the sidelines, and before the locals could cover up, Coles hurled a perfect pass and Epps easily outran the field. Coles' dropkick added the extra point. "Bulldog" Williams finally came into his own and counted the first score of the game, negotiating his annual long run. With the ball on Va. Normal's 30-yard line, Coles attempted a field goal. Williams rushed in blocked the kick, scooped up the ball and galloped 66 yards, leaving the entire field far behind. A 75-yard march covering six first downs, gave the Bisons the second score. The rush was interrupted on the visitors' 6-yard line but a penalty for interference gave Howard another chance after the Virginians had held for downs and Dodson took the oval over. Coach Watson released Donehy from the blankets in the last period and the "Big Train" lead his warriors to another touch from behind. Priestley saving a cer-Donehy added the point. Dodson and Peyton carried the Howard offense superbly until Doneghy appeared. Striplin subbing for Peyton showed ability. The Howard line outplayed the visiting wall. Twice Baker and D. Brown eluded the entire Howard defense but both were caught from behind. Priestley saving a certain score when he nabbed the former in the open. Until forced out early in the game D. Brown shaped as a dangerous ball carrier. Howard 19 Va. Normal 7 Williams . . . L.E. . . . T. Brown Smith . . . L.T. . . . Davis Kelley . . L.G. . . . Tompkins Priestley . . . center . . .

Rendall Field was the scene of the most baffling, formidable and concentrated struggle for gridiron supremacy in which the mighty Lincoln Lions have ever participated. Each team profitted by the penalties inflicted on the other. Lincoln took advantage of the St. Paul's set-backs in the first period, and booted a field goal from St. Pauls 28-yard line which point the Lions had reached as a direct result of St. Paul's assortment of penalties. Lincoln attempted a second goal from the field on their opponent's 30-yard line in the second period but the kick from the placement was blocked by Blackwell, St. Paul's towering forward. In the third period, 35-yard penalty placed St. Paul on Lincoln's 28-yard line. Dropping back to Lincoln's 35-yard line, Walker cleared the uprights for field goal. Both teams passed up beautiful opportunities to score from the field. The second period ended with the ball in St. Paul's possession on Lincoln's 19-yard line directly in front of the goal costs. As a result of an exchange of punts, and two spectacular broken field runs in the fourth period, Lincoln marched to St. Paul's 22-yard line and was stopped in an excellent position to try for a field goal. They, too, felt the imperative need of a touchdown, and they battered against St. Paul's impregnable line; only to lose the oval on downs. The composite score of the game gives eight first downs for St. Paul, seven for Lincoln. Lincoln attempted eighteen forward passes, completed two and intercepted three. St. Paul attempted six forward passes, completed one, intercepted two. Lincoln led in fumbling. St. Paul was superior in punting. Parker, after the first two, got his punts out splendidly. They were low, but were effective, and covered distances from forty to forty-eight yards. On running back punts, and broken field runs, Lincoln had the margin on the Orange and Black. St. Paul excelled the Blue and Gold in line rushes, line bucks, off-tackle plays and team work. Lincoln's entire outfit played a wonderful game. They staged a gallant fight and uncovered all the football strategy known to Lincolnites. B. S. Taylor and S. L. Johnson performed admirably. Poindexter and Lancaster were outstanding players. Captain "Whirlwind" Johnson was out of the fray nursing injuries. Coston played true to form and was always mixed up in the "spill." "Jazz' Byrd played well his part, but was so closely watched that he merely got away with several "one-steps." Lee and Goodman contributed long runs. St. Paul's "wonder team" acted valiantly and kept inviolate their coveted goal line. Their offensive tactics were complete with thrills and the execution of that famous shift was dramatic and the most conspicuous feat of their work. Boykins and Pierce starred for the Old Dominion lads. Byrd Maddux, Mason, Jackson, Coleman Burrell, and Lawyer Williams played a magnanimous game. St. Paul 3 Lincoln 3 Byrd .L.E.

SPORTS CHATTER By H. Scott, Tribune Sports Editor The Hampton-Howard battle on the this week's card. Crowding this game Normal-Union game at Petersburg. enthusiasts of the South are the Mor counters. The Hampton-Howard battle on the former's gridiron is the headliner on this week's card. Crowding this game in public interest is the Virginia Normal-Union game at Petersburg. Equally as important to the football enthusiasts of the South are the Morehouse-Talladega and Atlanta-Fisk encounters. From a local standpoint, the Dunbar-Bordentown affair at Philadelphia, rivals the first one. Doping the big attraction is an easier task than we expected early in the season. We figured Hampton to defeat Lincoln but were disappointed with the showing of the Seasiders. We know the Virginians will show vast improvement against Howard. A great weakness in the Hampton line was noted in the game against Lincoln. Changes in this sector have already been made. Yet we don't believe Hampton is strong enough to beat Howard. The local line is equally as good while Watson has far better backs than Smith. Doneghy, Peyton, Contee, Blackman, Dodson, and Striplin overshadow Gunn, Jacobs, Williams, Hardwick, Hargrove and Cardoza. Doneghy may be stopped. Coaches Williams and Smith have watched the local star in three games and it's no secret that they intend to check the deshes of the Bison captain. Doneghy's brain has aided him to become a star. A great back is this Kentuckian; probably the greatest that ever tred a C. I. A. A. gridiron. We never saw a man harder to hold. But should Hampton focus everything on Doneghy; Peyton, Contee, Dodson and Blackman can match Hampton's running offense. They demonstrated this against Va. Normal on last Saturday. Howard has the best running attack we have seen this year. Gunn and Jacobs may maykick Doneghy and Dodson, but the margin will be slight. Doneghy's punts are more likely to be blocked than any of the others because he stands very close to the scrimage line. If Hampton wins it will be via the overhead route. The Seasiders always have a strong aerial attack to launch as a desperate resort. To date, Coach Watson's proteges have shown little along the passing line. However, with Doakes, Doneghy and Blackman on the throwing end and Williams, Peyton, Contee and Long receiving, the locals' aerial attack can not be overlooked. We have failed to include Melton and Carter, regular 1922 backs, in the above sketch. Yet this pair have been working carnestly the past three weeks to land their old berths. It would not be at all surprising to see them face the Virginians. Howard should lead Hampton at the end by two touchdowns. As to the other outstanding battles scheduled for today, Union on paper figures to outscore Va. Normal; Morehouse should keep its slate clean; Atlanta will conquer Fisk; and Lincoln will beat Shaw. The trip South did not help the Panthers any, and they will have to rally to stand off Va. Normal, St. Paul and Hampton in successive weeks. If the injury Fentress received in the Atlanta game won't allow him to play this week, the Petersburg aggregation should win. The absence of Cook will weaken Morehouse. The Fisk team is a question mark. We have been unable to learn if "Tubby" Johnson is still there. An overwhelming victory for Atlanta might wake Fisk up. Lincoln is pointing for one game. Everybody knows what game that is. Coach Young will use subs as long as they can hold their own against Shaw. Sometime ago we learned that some of our southern institutions are still using white officials. We understand that Alabama's leaders, Tuskegee and Talladega, are about the last of our larger institutions to hold on to the whites. In our opinion the using of white officials is a snare to the many brilliant Race football players who annually leave our colleges after notable records on Southern gridirons. Why shouldn't such former stars as Rivers, Boss, Cooley, Street, Casterman, Gentry, White, Edwards, and many others be offered the chances of handling our games? Drastic action should be taken by all institutions of the South to eliminate this evil. If any college instists on white officials, that college should be boycotted. We have brainy and capable football men and there is no reason for our colleges not using them. M. T —Tubby Johnson, whose 1923 achievements at Fisk are unknown.

Bernard Young, Jr. Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 9—Hampton's versatile eleven won its fifth consecutive victory today and moved a step nearer the coveted intercollegiate championship, when, at the final sounding of the referee's whistle here today, they held the big end of a, 6-0 score, over Shaw. In the second quarter, both team engaged in a punting duel, until Hampton received the ball on her 45-yard line. Through the brilliant plunging of Williams and a perfectly executed pass from Gunn to Jacobs, which netted 21 yards, Hampton was put in a position to score. Williams carried the ball over on a line-plunge from the 5-yard line. The try-for point failed. The last half settled into a punting duel, once however, Hampton, through a pass from Hargrove to Pindle and more superb-line rushes, got the ball within Shaw's 5-yard line, but Shaw braced and stopped the onrush. Shaw completed a 20-yard pass from Chambers to Mitchell in the third quarter that brought the Shaw rooters to their feet. This threat was also short lived. The game was clean and stubbornly fought. Not a yard was lost in penalties. Shaw men found themselves at times helpless before a powerful attack and an impregnable defense. They refused, however, to quit fighting, hoping to stem the tide of defeat. The game stand of the vanquished in no way detracted from the glory which was -won by the Hampton "steam roller."

The first quarter ended without a first down for either team. The Tigers threatened to score in the second period but a fumble was recovered by Morris Brown. In the third quarter Morris Brown turned back two marches of the Tigers on their 4-yard line before Coach Harvey sent in Captain Kelley who had been on the sidelines suffering with a bruised knee. Kelley starred again advanced the ball to the 4-yard line where Jordan took it over. Morhouse played a kicking game thereafter and was threatened but once when a pass, Lockhart to Nix, netted a 30-yard gain. No further damage was done, however. Substitutes: Morris Brown—George for Wilkerson; Moses for Bailey; Lockhart for Barns and Williams for Cotton. Touchdown—Jordan. VA. NORMAL AND ST.

HELLO, ZACK WHERE YA GDIN'? ALL THE BIG BUGS IS GOND OVER TO THE EGYPTIAN EXHIBIT, LET'S LOOK IT OVER. EGYPTIAN EXHIBIT Ben Taylor to Lead Pro Quint Plans are under way for a first-class professional basketball club to represent Washington for the coming season. The enterprise is headed by none other than Ben Taylor, the man who put Washington on the map in baseball last summer. The need for a competent club in this city has been felt for some time. The material is here but for the past ten years it has been divided up into at least four or five different teams. This season will find the cream of the court stars combined as one club. Washington fans may no longer have to witness one-sided games between out-of-town teams and teams representing this city. All players wishing to try for positions on the team will please communicate with E. L. Conway, Jr., 2008 3rd Street, northwest on phone North 9090 for information.

Robertson of the Lee county circuit court at Marianna in contempt of court and fined $500 because of his recent refusal to accept six Negroes alleged to have been implicated in the uprising at Elaine in 1919, from the sheriff of Lee county. The warden held he was without authority to accept them and the Negroes were given their liberty. The released men have not been rearrested.

HAMPTON'S THIRD TEAM WINS Hampton, Va. Nov. 10—Before a majority of the student body and several hundred rooters, Hamptons third team defeated the fast Union High School team of Hampton, Va., 21-2. Robinson, Dyson, Lee, and McKonzie starred for Hampton. Smith was the star for Union High School. Union secured her two points on a safety, downing a Hampton man behind the goal after fumbling a punt. ARMSTRONG STILL WINNING It seems that it is quite impossible for any High School team of football players to compel Armstrong to taste defeat. Again has the football squad from Baltimore High School bowed to their opponents here when the Armstrong boys completely smothered them on Thursday November 15, to the score of 33 to 0. Before quite a throng of school mates the home boys made numerous end runs of twenty and thirty yards and forward passes both short and long until the coach, Westmoreland sent in every boy in uniform to take part in the mulee. Temple, Ellis, Turner, Dorsey, Blue Nixon and Brown were the outstanding players of the home team, while the visitors to shine best were Williams and Dixon. The Armstrong squad has a most creditable record for the season having won all of its contests, scoring 123 points to the opponents 6. Coach Westmoreland is putting the boys through a severe test these days and he feels that this year's record of wins will be no less than last year's for the Orange and Blue. In thirteen contests during the last two seasons, theboys of Armstrong have prevented their goal from being crossed, except on one lone occasion. With this record at their back and with great incentive to pass this season undefeated, the public may look for a real demonstration of football tactics when our boys entertain their guests from Baltimore on Thursday. November 15 at the American League Baseball Park. EGGLETON IN CUBA Ben Taylor's star backstop, Eggleton is now campaigning in Cuba playing right field for the Havana team which is mapped by Luque, ace of the Cincinnati Reds' staff and the leading 1923 National League pitcher. WONDER WHAT THAT NUMBER 167 B.C. IS FOR. WHY, YA POOR DUMBELL, THAT'S THE NUMBER OF THE MACHINE THAT HIT HIM!! WATSON Atlanta and Union in Scoreless Tie In one of the best exhibitions of football seen upon a local gridiron in recent years, the 'Fighting Unionites' from Richmond, Virginia, and the Atlanta University Crimson Hurricane battled for sixty fierce minutes to a scoreless tie in the greatest intersectional battle of the year between Negro universities. The Panthers threatened to score in the second quarter when Fentress, Unions All-American fullback, sped around the Hurricanes' right end for twenty-two yards before he was finally downed on the latter's eight-yard line. Here the Crimson and Gray battlers adopted the memorable slogan of the great French Marshall "Its me passeront pas." The best that the Union backs could do in three line plunges was to lose one yard. On the fourth down with nine yards between them and the Atlanta goal line, Fentress started on a lightning dash toward the Atlanta goal line but Collum, brilliant Atlanta halfback, suddenly crossed his path, and the great fullback was downed on the locals' three-yard line. The Virginians had the edge in the matter of first downs, making seven to the Hurricane's four. This difference was more than offset, however, by the excellent punting of Captain Lang of the Atlanta team who averaged forty yards for the entire game. The feature of the game was the excellent defensive play of both teams; especially the wonderful defensive game of Wright, youthful left end of the Atlanta team, who was playing his first complete game of college football. "Bab" Miller's tackling featured for Union. Barksdale and Boffman played well for the Panthers. The fineup: Union Atlanta W.A.Smith .LE. Wright Earksdale .L.T. Lamar W.J.Smith .L.G.

J., Nov. 5—Harry Wills, the big Negro challenger for Jack Dempsey's crown, put away Jack Thompson, the Boston Negro heavy, in the fourth round of their fight here tonight. The bout was scheduled for twelve rounds, but in the fourth Wills nailed his man with a right to the jaw, and Thompson hit the resin. When he got up, he was all at sea, unable to defend himself. Wills crashed rights and left at him, and Thompson fell THANKSGIVING RECEPTION 5 DAYS ONLY, BEGINNING SUNDAY, NOV. 18th Special Time Schedule made necessary by length of production Sunday—2:45, 4:50, 6:55, 9 Week Days—1:30, 3:30, 5:30, 7:30, 9:37 into the ropes, and then to the floor. As the referee was beginning the count, towel flopped into the ring with the round only having five seconds to go. Thompson's second evidently figured there was no use having their man continue further. Thompson was on his hands and knees, not completely out, when the towel was tossed in. The Boston fighter absorbed a lot of blows in the first three rounds and a lot more in the fourth before finally folding up. Still, he was managing a smile. Wills was never in danger, crowding his man all the while. rowing his main arm the white. It was the tenth fight between the pair, and Wills has always won. Three or four times previously it was also by the knockout route. Wills is now on a campaign which, he announces, will show he is entitled to meet Dempsey. Wills received a rousing reception by the local fight fans with whom he is a big favorite. May Go to Italy Wills, may be matched with Ermino Spalla, the European champion, in the near future. If the match is made it will be held in Rome, Italy on Washington's Birthday, February 22. Signor Guiseppe Carpagna, the Italian promoter, who has offered Jack Dempsey $250,000 to meet Spalla in Rome, cabled Nick Kline, Spalla's American representative, to open negotiations with Paddy Mullins, manager of Wills, should the Manassa Mauler turn down the offer to box in the Eternal City. Gallant Array or Stors to Appear in "Deceit" HEADED BY EVELYN PREER and CLEO DESMOND Thrills, beauty drama and the sense appeal predominate in "Deceit" the first super-colored production, which explains the carefully selected cast headed by Evelyn Preer, who will be remembered as the girl who made such a hit at the Howard Theatre last spring in "Salome." Strongly supporting Miss Preer are Cleo Desmond, and A. B. DeComethere whose ability make them well deserving of the parts assigned them. "Deceit" is true to its title—the story of a hypocrite who smiles in the faces of his associates singing PAGE FIVE Watson THATS MACHINE Watson honored words which he know all the while to be only lies and "Deceit." The perfidy of a hypocritical preacher who breaks up his own daughter's home out of spite and malice toward her husband; the sensational race by the husband in an automobile with the train to save his wife from the evil her own father and sister had surrounded her with, are some of the elements which blend in the keenest dramatic story of Negro life as depicted in our homes. The clever direction by Oscar Micheaux assures one of an evenings entertainment made unforgettable by the wonderful acting of Miss Preer, Cleo Desmond and A. B. DeComethiere, with a supporting cast which includes Norman Johnstone, Shinzie and Mary Howard, and Mary Cook. The picture plays four days at the Broadway beginning Sunday November 18th. "ASHES OF VENGEANCE" "AN ENTRANCE PICTURE "A mountain among the myriad molehills of the screen." Thus did the critic of the New York World characterize Joseph M. Schenck's magnificent production, "Ashes of Vengeance," a First National picture starring Norma Talmadge, which the Lincoln Theatre will present for five days, commencing Sunday. In his quest for material with which to add another brilliant chapter to the notable achievements of his great star, Mr. Schenck his attention called to H.B. Somerville's novel, "Ashes of Vengeance," while in England a year ago. He read the novel and immediately acquired the screen rights. And he determined that the work would be filmed in strict adherence to the narrative and to historical accuracy. To insure accuracy in production, Mr. Schenek delegated the writing of the continuity to Frank Lloyd, who had been selected as director, and the art direction to Stephen Goisson, of L'Ecole des Beaux Arts, of Paris. An immense amount of research was undertaken by these directors. The ranks of motion picture talent were combed for types as true as possible to the historic personages who move across the screen in the majestic sequences of this stirring picture, among them Catherine de Medici, Charles the Ninth, and three of the Guises.

IN NEW YORK The Negroes on the Republican ticket in Chicago, in the recent election held in that city, lost, while the Negroes on the Democratic ticket in the election in New York won. The Defender in a news article regarding the defeat of Attorney Edward Morris, after enumerating the large number of votes cast for Attorney Morris, said: "This ought to prove to voters of Color everywhere that it is for their best interests to stay by the old Republican ship." The article states that Mr. Morris was placed in nomination by the regular Republican party and then says: "If he had received the full support of the party he would have been elected." This statement does not tally with the one preceding in which the writer said: "It is for their best interests to stay by the old Republican ship." The Defender informs us that our Republican friends(?) "nominated" Mr. Morris but failed to support him. How can any intelligent Negro editor advise Negroes "to stay by the old Republican ship" when that "old ship" will not "support" them? Contrast the failure of the Negro Republican candidate, Mr. Morris, of Chicago, with the success of Henri W. Shields candidate for the State Legislature of New York, and John W. Smith for Alderman of New York City, on the Democratic ticket in New York City on the same day that the Republicans "passed up" Mr. Morris in Chicago. Using the words of the Defender—"This ought to prove to voters of Color everywhere that it is for their interests to "turn to the Democratic Party, or some other party that will not only nominate Negroes, but will support them after being nominated. The Negroes of the South are practically eliminated in all elections. Therefore, there is a double duty upon the colored voters of the North. Taking it man for man, the Northern men in the Democratic party are demonstrating more real interest in the Colored voter than his erstwhile Republican friends. With the Northern Negro selecting his Democratic candidate with care and voting accordingly, it would not take many years to get our friends of the Democratic party in office, along with members of our Race. The Democratic Negroes of New York, with a man in the legislature and one on the Board of Aldermen of New York City, have put it over on the Republican Negroes of Chicago who are "staying by the old Republican ship," which has marooned them. TOO MANY "DAYS." "WEEKS" AND HOLIDAYS In his annual report, made public last week, Superintendent Frank W. Ballou, of the public schools of this city is perfectly correct in his position against so many "days," "weeks" and holidays in the public schools. In addition to the numerous regular holidays—at least two periods of which extend over a week—and the closing of the schools for other periods when teachers are supposed to be attending institutes, etc., Superintendent Ballou pointed out that in addition to many special celebrations or "days," the children during the last school year participated officially in eleven designated weeks—Fire Prevention week, Cancer week, Children's Book week, Better Speech week, Safety week, American Education week, Drama week, Thrift week, National Garden week, Conservation of Eyesight week and Music week. The Tribune heartily agrees with the Superintendent and commends him for his action. This statement is significant: "The schools are growing to be more and more social institutions, rather than institutions for the development of individuals as such. The schools undertake to serve the community and the state as well as to serve the individuals." With the view of serving the community a-d the state, the Superintendent will do well to recommend the elimination of a number of useless "days," "weeks" and holidays and institute a real program of vital education that will benefit the individual, the community and the state. The public schools should not be used as a publicity medium for the promotion of all kinds of schemes and propaganda—good, bad and indifferent.

The as a publicity medium for the p and propaganda—good, bad and REV. JERNAGIN CELEBRATES ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY Amid befitting honor and splendor Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist church and president of the National Race Congress, rounded out eleven consecutive years of service last Monday night as pastor of that church. Being called from his field of labor in the state of Oklahoma, he took up the reins of government when things were approximating evil days for this institution. Through his persistent endeavors, he has brought this church up to rank among the foremost of his denomination. Fifteen-hundred new members added to the church and over $126,000 raised have some of his accomplishments. Leading ministers and prominent men and women, including the Rev. Dr. J. E. East of Philadelphia, were in attendance to witness the many presentations with which he was showered by friends, organizations and admirers. He was given a purse containing over $375. Rev. Wm. B. March, Assistant Pastor of the church and one who has also been a factor in building this organization as well as contributing tellingly to the great Baptist Denomination, was Master of Ceremonies. It is being whispered that because of the broad experience Rev. Marsh has had in church work, having himself pastored, and holding a theological degree from Howard University, that he may be induced to bow to the demands of a local church and become a pastor again. REV. LAMPKINS RETURNS Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins, D.D., pastor of McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, Fourth and L Streets, North- Church, Fourth and L Streets, Northwest, has just returned from a very extensive trip West which carried him to the Pacific Coast. Rev. Lankins visited Los Angeles, and San Francisco, California. On his way home he stopped at Salt Lake City and attended the 96th annual meeting tended the 96th semi-annual session of the Morman Church. While attending this convention Rev. Lankins was presented by U. S. Senator Reed Smoot to President Herburt J. Grant of the Morman Church. While in Colorado, Rev. Lamkins visited Deerfield, a colored town located two miles south of the Union Pacific and three milse north of the Burlington railroads and seventy-two miles norhteast of Denver. To call attention to the migrants from the South, and other home seekers, to the great advantages to all who desire to be happily located to come to Colorado, Governor Sweet of that state made public recently a statement saying that Colorado would welcome 250,000 colored families in the state and would do all in its power to make them happy and prosperous. The town site of Deerfield is composed of 480 acres of land. Rev. Lamkins has again resumed his work here. WILBERFORCE CLUB The Wilberforce University Club of Washington will hold a special meeting at the residence of Dr. W. L.

Adams Roy Wilfred Tibbs Notably Honored Two signal honors of recent date have been conferred upon Roy Wilfred Tibbs, professor of pianoforte, Howard University Conservatory of Music, evidencing the potentiality of his musical ability in the world of art. Hailing from a source of marked intellectual profundity these honors hold a greater significance than mere passing favoritism. It is a mark of merited recognition extending beyond the bounds of race or nationality. Mr. Tibbs was offered a "Juliard Fellship in Music" by Oberlin College which he respectfully declined with thanks on account of regular school duties. This the first time a musician of the race has thus been honored. The fellowship amounted to $1000. Of recent local interest was the Oberlin Alumni dinner in honor of President King, the occasion of Mr. Tibbs' second honor. It was a big get-together of the Oberlin Alumni of Washington, all of whom were invited to a dinner given by the trustees of Oberlin at the Church of the Covenant Monday, October 4th at 6:30 p.m. After dinner there were speeches by Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, President King of Oberlin, and Homer Johnson. Music was rendered by members of the alumni, and among them was Professor Tibbs who played "St. Francis Sermon to the Birds" (Liszt). He was received with great enthusiasm and the toast master was proud to claim him one of Oberlin's alumnus. His performance of this masterpiece displayed not only technique but mastery of interpretation. There were about 150 present and among the guests were Mrs. Meriweather of the class of 70, George Smith, Mrs. Daniel Murray, Mrs Mary Church Terrell, Mrs. Dwight Holmes, Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, Miss Rosa Bell Lane and Mt. and Mrs. Roy W. Tibbs. 3rd Baptist Choir Invited to Baltimore The Third Baptist Choir, has been invited to sing in the Trinity Baptist church, Baltimore, Md., on Thanksgiving evening and they have voted their acceptance.

Mandolin Orchestra Begins Free Rehearsals Last Saturday evening at 7:30 o'clock the mandolin orchestra commenced its series of free rehearsals and it was an auspicious beginning to say the least. One beautiful string ensemble was rendered, a trio entitled "Ave Maria" by Gounod, 1st Mandolin, Mr. P. W. Webster; 2nd mandolin, Mr. L. J. Leonard; guitar accompaniment, Mr. E. R. James. This well known classic on strings is the most soothing, tranquil harmony imaginable, and the absent ones surely missed a musical treat. This orchestra, mind you, is not a 'jazz' combination but a group of serious minded persons bent on developing the best in music. You should hasten to join them next Saturday evening at the Columbia Conservatory, 1911 Ninth Street, northwest. Lampton-Star, Pianist, Coming Quite a deal of interest is being manifested in the coming piano recital of Miss Cornella Lampton of Chicago, Wednesday, December 12th at Lincoln Theatre. Without doubt Miss Lampton is one of the two greatest women pianists of the race (the other one is Hazel Harrison) and among the really few brilliant pianistic stars of any nationality. Her recital, like that of Marion Anderson's later, will possibly draw out the elites of society and the entire musical entourage of the nation's capital. Secure your patron ticket at once and be assured of a musical treat. AMERICAN LEGION APPROVES NEW CHARTER The District Department of the American Legion has approved the issuance of a charter to the New Colored post to be known temporarily as Post No. 29. Immediately upon notification of this action, L. DeReef Holton, the Commander, announced his intention of conducting a vigorous campaign for members with the objective of 250 members in three months. The Post has headquarters at the Holy Name Guild, and promises to make itself well-known in this Department. Honor Reception A splendid reception was tendered Mrs. Susie E. Addelle, department president of the United Spanish War Veterans, and her staff officers, at G. A. R. Hall, Friday evening, November 9th, by the E. A. Allensworth Auxiliary No. 2, of which Mrs. Lucy M. Coles is President. The occasion was in celebration of the second term, as department president. Mrs. Adelle is devoted to the eight units composing her department, and in consequence she is held i nghigh esteem by the members. Her greatest ambition is to see an increase in growth of the auxiliaries and to further this end has visited some of the Southern states, hoping to organize two new auxiliaries before her term of office expires. Mrs. Addelle attended the national convention, of the U. S. W. V. held in Chattanooga, Tenn., and was elected as a national officer. She holds the distinction of being the only colored department president attending a national convention.

OUR PUZZLE BOX Eight Letters By Florence C. Jones (14) Take the eight letters h, i, j, k, l, m, n, and o, and make a sentence. Example: His Idiotic Jokes Knocked Lucy Murphy Nearly Out. A Negro Hero If you can properly arrange the letters which appear in the squares below you will have the name of a Negro hero of a novel written by Mrs. Afra Behn (1640-89). The story is founded on fact. The story was dramatized by Thomas Southern (1660-1746). The hero of the story was a black prince who is decoyed on shipboard and sold into slavery. He meets his wife Imoinda, whom he had supposed to be dead, and after avenging those who had mistreated her he commits suicide. $ \mathbf{R}^{1} $ $ \mathbf{K}^{1} $ $ \mathbf{O}^{5} $ $ \mathbf{N}^{1} $ Explanation: Take the four letters above and use each letter the number of times indicated by the small figures accompanying it. When these letters are properly arranged you will have the name of this Negro hero. N.B.—A synopsis of this story has already appeared on this page. Perhaps some of the older Tribunites remember this very interesting story. "North Ain't South" made its initial bow to a Washington audience last Manday night. The show is without ing, and a well-acted play dealing with ten and directed productions to play here this year. Contrary to the New York critics, Washington failed to see any symptoms of racial propaganda in the show. It is a clean, mirth-provoking, and well-acted play dealing with a theme that is truly characteristic of "show" life. The comedy was furnished by Messrs. Whitney and McClennon, who kept the audience in an almost continuous uproar. McClennon is easily the funniest of the duo. His musical ability is far above that of the average musician and actor. Of the female group, Maud DeForrest is easily the star. Her singing and acting met with instant favor. The parody on "Othello" furnishes one of the brightest bits of comedy ever seen here. This sketch shows the real ability of the actors. Whitney as "Othello" and Miss DeForrest as "Desdemon" played their roles with a degree of skill that is far above the RACE PRIDE ABOVE ALL ELSE only; write on one side of paper; give too class.

The duplicate line is the fifth line in the letter written by Hilda A. Stewart. We must compel the respect of others. The orchestra role was carried by McClennon, who not only used the country school organ, but employed a jews-harp, mouth-organ, flute and a clarinet as well. His playing vied with the work actors for applause. One of the most novel features of the show was the radium drill featured by the chorus. The girls were dressed in natty blue three-piece suits trimmed with white braid which was treated with radium. The house was darkened and the girls drilled about the stage. The white braid on their suits only could be seen, which made radium outlines in the dark. "Deedel Deedel Da Da Dum,' sung by Bona Chester, was the outstanding song hit, with 'Shake a leg' and 'Sadie' next in line. The singing of Paul Bass made a hit in the numbers he sang. The success of the show this week has warranted the management of the Howard in holding it over for a second week. If you haven't seen "North Ain't South" don't miss it; for it is easily one of the best shows you will see this year. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1923 EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY (Reprinted from above-named book; by permission of author) THE DEATH OF JOHN WILLIAM COSTERTON THE MEMORIAL OF THE FATHER OF THE FIGHTER THIS WORLD THE DEATH OF MAJOR MONTGOMERY Tablet in Old Fort Griswold, New London, Conn. APPENDIX As stated in the Preface, it is my intention to take up in a separate monograph, the matter of the contributions of Black Folk to art in America and elsewhere. There are some works that I propose to discuss in that monograph which might per- THE DEATH OF M Tablet in Old Fort Gris haps as properly be discussed in this. Among those works may be mentioned the following: a. Fourteen Tableau Groups designed and constructed by Mrs. Meta V. Warrick Fuller for the Jamestown Exposition in 1907. These were not strictly sculpture, but were plastic figures painted appropriately, and having natural hair. They were dressed to conform to whatever characters they represented. They were in groups of from three to twenty-seven. With each group there were associated such properties and accessories as would tend to give more or less realism to the scenes represented. They were intended to set forth in graphic form a sort of social history of the Negro in America. b. Busts and medallions of persons of color, modeled by Miss Edmonia Lewis, Mr. Isaac Hathaway, Mrs. May H. Jackson, and others. c. Works of relatively small size, chiefly ornamental, in which figures of colored persons occur incidentally or humorously; for example, a small ash tray, by Mrs. Jackson, which includes the figure of a Negro baby. It would be manifestly impracticable, and perhaps not worth while, to attempt to describe, or even to enumerate, the monuments, the tablets, etc., which have been made and erected in honor of people of color in America. However, of those which were erected or unevilled in a public way, a few, on account of the importance of the persons commemorated or the circumstances of the erections, may be regarded as sufficiently nota- ARMISTICE DAY CLEBRATED BY COLORED CITIZENS Program Furnished by N.A.A.C.P. The Metropolitan A. M. E. Church was the scene of one of the most enthusiastic, patriotic mass meetings in honor of Armistice Day held in the city for a long time. At 3 o'clock Sunday, between 1000 and 1,500 persons had gathered in the auditorium, which had been decorated with American flags. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had delayed the usual fall opening from October, to Armistice Day, and the program furnished by them was the opening of the year's work. The Community Center Band rendered a program of concert numbers. Archibald H. Grimke, president of the local branch presided. In his introductory remarks he referred to the significance of Armistice Day as being more than the anniversary of the cessation of hostilities in the World War, and the beginning of the World peace. He said: ble to warrant brief mention; among them, the following: A bust of Mr. Douglass occupies a niche in the University of Rochester placed there during his life by act of the municipal council and on one of the pillars of the State House at Albany, are the lineaments of the great orater and reformer. [Quoted from "The Negro in American History," by John W. Cromwell.] THE HEART OF MONTGOMERY WITH THE BRITISH IN THE FOUNDATION THIS WORK AJOR MONTGOMERY wold, New London, Conn. The Henshaw Chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution have in recent years purchased the old Salem homestead at Leicester, made a public drinking fountain of the old well, and marked the old home-spot with a huge stone inscribed: "Here lived Peter Salem, a soldier of the Revolutionary War." A local chapter of the Sons of the Revolution have likewise marked his grave with a fitting stone in the Framingham cemetery. [From an article in "A. M. E. Church Review" for Oct., 1912, by George W. Forbes, who states that he derived the most of the information from an article in the "Journal of American History," No. 1, 1911.] A tablet on the front of the Memorial Church in Richmond, Va.; commemorates the heroic services of a Negro, Gabriel Ford; who rescued several persons during a fire which destroyed a theatre, that stood on the spot, in 1811. In the fire many prominent persons, including the governor of the state, perished. [From a letter from a friend; who, writing from memory, says he is not certain as to the name on the tablet.] Upon one of the granite posts forming the gate-entrance to the reservation wherein is old Fort Griswold is a tablet bearing the names of those who took part in the contest of Sept. 6, 1781. The heading is: "Defenders of Fort Griswold September 6th, 1781 Killed, Lieut. Col. William Ledyard, commanding" Then follow the names in alphabetical order of those killed. Among these are: "Jordan Freeman (negro)" "Lambo Latham (negro)" Next comes a list of those wounded and a list of those captured. No names of negroes appear in these columns. Within the old fort there is on the SCOTT TO OPEN NEW PLACE Washington is to have something new in first class eating shops. The Waffle and Coffee Shop at 87 Florida Avenue, Northwest, will open Monday, November 19th, under the management of Mr. C. R. Scott, formerly the proprietor of Scotts Lunchroom at Seventh and T Streets, Northwest. This is truly a departure in the service that patrons of restaurants are accustomed to receiving, and it will be the only "Waffle and Coffee Shop" in the Nation's Capital. Something new and something different is the best way of describing it. ALL PHOTOS MUST BE IN BY MONDAY (Continued from page 1) "Miss Washington' will be guest of honor at the big concert and reception in the Crystal room of the famous Academy of Music; she will also be guest at the "Football Classic Reception" at the Third Regiment Armory. and extremely—or even freakishly—“different” (from us) are some of the genus homo. Almost as the last sheets of this monograph are passing through the press, I have learned of a figure that was exhibited at the Panama-Pacific Exposition. The figure bore the very disrespectful, if not positively offensive, name, “The Nigger.” The catalogue shows that the figure was loaned for exhibition by Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney. It is mentioned in a review of American Sculpture by J. Nilsen Laurvik which is incorporated in a Catalogue de luxe of the Art of the Exposition, published by the Paul Elder company. Mr. Laurvik refers to it merely as typifying the “realistic movement of our day.” The sculptor was Arthur Lee. I have not been able, in the time at my disposal, to learn more about this figure [?] than Mr. Laurvik's statement says and suggests. I have used the word "suggests" wittingly, for there is no denying that the combination of such a name with an assurance of "realism" suggests a production that would not and should not cause, in "us" at least, any thrills of gratification. Perhaps my misgivings are ill-founded. I hope that they are. Please place your age after your name in "every" letter. At the conclusion of Mr. F. H. M. Murray's book "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculptor" it is fitting to publish two letters, one from a Tribunite, (the letter being typical of many written by children commenting on Mr. Murray's book.) The other letter is from a Civil War veteran. Space will be devoted to letters commenting on Mr. Murray's book. Letters from children and grown folks would be appreciated by the editor of this page.—C.L.F. 740 Howard Ave., S.E. Dear Editor: I am very much interested in the "Children's Page." I get it every week_and find many articles in it that interests me very much. I have written to you before and this is the second time. I enjoy reading the article "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculpture." I will continue to write to you. EVELYN SMITH (13) Dear Editor: I was reading in this morning's Tribune the article by Mr. Murray concerning the Shaw Memorial memurment. Being one of the surviving members of that regiment I am proud to know that there is some one ready to speak of the noble work of the old 54th in helping to save the Union, and in helping to secure the freedom of our people. I must say that our people do not read and study the history of the Negro race, nor do they know the real merits of the black soldiers who have In addition to the above gifts, The Rose Elmer Beauty Shoppe at 708 S Street, Northwest, will give "Miss Washington" a beauty treatment, dress her hair, give a facial massage and manicure. The Madeline Beauty Parlors located at 1927 9th Street, Northwest, will give "Miss Washington" the use of their parlors for a period of one month; this offer will include any branch of Beauty Culture she may desire. The contest so far has been unusually a very successful one; The Tribune will publish next week the remaining pictures entered in the contest; some contestants failed to observe the rule that only black and white photographs would be accepted; some photos were sent in with the request that they be returned; these photos will not be reproduced in the paper, as the pictures This coupon when presented at Scurlock Studio, 900 U Street, Northwest, on Wednesdays from 2 to 4 p.m. or on Saturdays from 12 to 2 p.m. will entitle the holder to one free sitting.—The Washington Trbiune. south wall a stone placed in the earth of the fort wall. This tablet shows in relief a British commander leading his men over the earthen wall of the fort, within which are shown three figures: one defender about to mount the wall and fire his musket, another kneeling and firing directly at the British officer, a third figure, that of a black man (the lips, hair, and features, clearly marking him as such), holding a long pike with which he is warding off the attackers. The tablet bears the inscription: "The Death of Major William Montgomery while Leading the British attack on the Fort at this point, Sept. 6, 1781." The last quoted description is kindly furnished to me by Mr. Frederick Wm. Edgerton, librarian of the public library at New London, Connecticut, where the fort named is located. The statement is no doubt as accurate as it is lucid and complete. It may be proper to add, for those whose history may be a little rusty, that the black man who is shown wielding the pike undoubtedly represents Jordan Freeman who is credited with putting Major Montgomery out of action forever, with a pike, paralleling the feat of Peter Salem, named above, who shot down the British commander at Bunker Hill. Salem, however, was more fortunate than Freeman, who, as the inscription above quoted shows, fell in the battle. In these works and in others cited and to be cited in the North, and in the South, we have representations and inscriptions, which, while agreeably frank, are unreservedly complimentary to Black Folk; and, notwithstanding past injustices and present besetements, are hopeful auguries of a better day. The Colored Women's Clubs of New York have recently erected a monument at the grave of Mrs. Harriet Tubman (Davis) at Auburn, New York. (This is independent of the memorial tablet there, already discussed.) Movements have been started looking to the erection of memorials for other colored women and men of distinction. Among those most prominently mentioned are: Sojourner Truth, Phillis Wheatley, Amanda Smith, Frances Watkins Harper, and Fanny Jackson Coppin; also Oliver Cromwell, a soldier of the Revolutionary War. It is earnestly hoped that these movements and others of like kind will be carried to success, and that opportunities will be embraced to bring out some works more artistic and stimulating than the ordinary grave-stones. No doubt some of our colored sculptors, if encouraged to try with others, could suggest, design, and produce memorials that would be creditable to all concerned. On several public buildings and a few business buildings in America, are the sculptured heads or busts of Negroes, generally among similar heads or busts representative of other races and nationalities. These are intended chiefly for ornament. Some of these are little more than the work of mechanics, others are works of real art. Of the latter class, perhaps the most notable are at the tops of the main columns of the City Hall, Philadelphia and in the St. Paul Building, New York City; and on the window lintels of the New York Custom House and the Library of Congress. None of them are of particular interpretative or historic interest They are, generally speaking, merely "specimens," and are of the same general character as the specimen illustrations in our dictionaries and geographies, wherein the moving purpose seems to be to show how curious. No mother need feel the least fear in permitting her daughter to enter this contest. The chaperone for which all expenses are also provided, is to be selected by "Miss Washington" herself, and will therefore provide all the necessary safeguards any parent or guardian could desire. The following merehants of this city are going to present gifts to "Miss Washington": Miladys' Shop, 931 G Street, Northwest, a sport dress, hat by Madam Blanche, 1214 U Street; beaded blouse; by H.

When the Civil War broke out Colored men were not permitted to enlist, but I went with Captain M. H. Crowell, Co. E, 25th Ohio, as a servant and later with Major Mitchell of the 44th Ohio. When a call was made I came back home to Ohio and enlisted in the 54th Massachusetts. I was sent to Boston where I joined my company. I was in all of the battles participated in by my company. I was wounded twice at Wagner. I was proud to read of the Colored soldiers in Mr. Murray's article, "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculpture." Keep such good literature up. Let the people know about such events as Fort Wagner. At present I am unable to leave my home on account of my wounds received in action, but I offered my services in the Spanish-American War through Senator Warren. Although unable to go to the front again I would crawl to be of service to my country and to my race. Wishing you and the children the best that God can give, I remain your friend, the late sergeant, Co. K, 54th Massachusetts Regiment. Dear Editor: The picture of Harry T. Burleigh brings to mind that our race stays loyal to its greatest natural ability—the power to sing. Mr. Burleigh is a noted baritone singer and a composer of nationally famous songs. He was awarded the Spingarn Medal in 1917. Some of his best compositions are: "Deep River," "Her Eyes Twin Pools," "The Soldier," "Your Lips Are Wine," "If Giove Guerriere," "The Grey Wolf," and "Mother O'Mine."

Note: Drawing contest prizes—first prize, five theater tickets; second prize, three theater tickets; for all other good pictures submitted one theater ticket will be given. Dear Dennis: I am sincerely sorry to learn of the death of your grandfather. A high tribute has been given him by you in your letter to me. Knowing his many virtues, and realizing as you do to what extent he made those happy with whom he came in contact, it would be good for you to try to be like him. I admire your devotion. C. L. F.

PALMER PERSONALS POINTERS IN THE "BEAUTY CONTEST" Being mindful of the fact that College and High School Students, tho not children, are limited in the amount of money they can spend for amusements, we have decided for the benefit of the students to reduce our admission price from 22c to 10c during our afternoon shows. In order that adults who are not students may not take advantage of this reduced admission, we are issuing an identification card to be filled out by the student. These cards may be had at the box office of the theater at any time. Justice Tempered with too much Mercy becomes Injustice. ALEXANDRIA, VA., NEWS Alexandria Agency 803 South Fairfax Street Phone 1398-J The Alumni Association The Snowden, Hallowell and Parker-Gray Alumni Association has sent out its annual circular letter and it is hoped that those who receive a copy will respond promptly. They are very much in need of flat top desks for five of the teachers. One set of five were purchased last year. The former pupils of Snowden and Hallowell Schools, now residing in Jersey City, N.J. and New York, have organized a Parker-Gray Home Club with the following elected officers:—W. Fairfax Douglass, president; Mrs. Florence Chapman Jackson, vice-president; Simon S. King, treasurer; Herbert G. Dogans, secretary. The aim of the club is to assist the Alumni Association in furnishing supplies for the Parker-Gray School. It is a noble aim. During October, this club sent a check for sixty-eight dollars to the Alumni to help purchase desks for the teachers in Parker-Gray School. The following is a list of contributing members of the Home Club: Albert B. Jackson, Simon S. King, Joseph E. Harris, Mrs. Lucy Poindexter Marlowe, Frederick T. Smith, Herbert G. Dogans, Robert C. Franklin, Mrs. Frank Scarce, Mrs. Esther Smith Thomas, Mrs. Lou Smith, Mrs. Scott Dixon, Mrs. Samuel Cooper, Archie Waters, Mrs. J. E. Sadler, Charles Dixon, Mrs. Daisy Beckley Mitchell, W. F. Douglass and Mrs. Florence Chapman Jackson. It is the duty of every ex-pupil to contribute something to this worthy cause. It is here in Snowden, Hallowell or Parker-Gray Schools where you received your fundamental training. Every one who has a child in school should give something. Every citizen should contribute to our Parker-Gray School. It is hoped that every one who has received a letter asking a contribution will give at once.
